About This 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E350 Sedan

This particular E350 is a W212-generation E-Class — one of the most well-regarded generations in the model's long history. With 89,119 miles on the odometer, it sits comfortably in a range that still has plenty of life ahead of it, especially for a platform known for durability and meticulous German construction.

2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits a naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V6 engine paired with a smooth-shifting 7-speed automatic transmission with Sport Mode. This powertrain produces around 302 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque, delivering confident, linear acceleration that feels effortless at highway speeds. The rear-wheel-drive configuration gives the E350 a balanced, driver-focused feel that front-wheel-drive competitors simply can't replicate. Sport Mode sharpens throttle response and holds gears longer for a more engaging drive when the road opens up. Fuel economy is respectable for the class, typically landing around 19 mpg city and 27 mpg highway — competitive for a V6 of this caliber.
 

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Features and Interior

Step inside the E350 and the cabin immediately communicates its luxury pedigree. The W212 E-Class features a well-appointed interior with premium materials, including genuine wood trim accents, leather seating surfaces, and a driver-centric cockpit layout that feels purposeful rather than flashy. The COMAND infotainment system provides navigation, Bluetooth connectivity, and audio controls through a central rotary dial that keeps your eyes on the road. Dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, power-adjustable memory seating, and ambient lighting are hallmarks of this generation's interior comfort package. The rear seat offers genuine legroom that rivals some entry-level luxury sedans twice the price.
 

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Reliability and Ownership

The W212 E-Class has earned a strong reputation among used luxury car buyers who do their homework. Mercedes-Benz built this generation with a focus on longevity — the 3.5L V6 engine is widely regarded as one of the smoothest and most reliable powerplants in the brand's lineup, with many examples surpassing 150,000 miles when properly maintained. Common ownership notes include the importance of using Mercedes-approved synthetic oil, keeping up with transmission fluid changes, and monitoring the air suspension (if equipped). With regular maintenance, this platform holds up exceptionally well. Pre-purchase inspection records or service history documentation are always a plus, and Import Auto World can walk you through what's available for this specific vehicle.
